Abstract

A bag for mounting on the cross bar of a bicycle. The bag includes flap portions unitary with the bag walls and extending above the bag pocket. The flap portion on one wall being wrapped around the bicycle cross bar and joined together by hook and loop fastener materials to support the bag and its contents. The flap portion on the other wall folds over the top opening of the bag and fastens to the flap on the first wall thereby covering the opening.

I claim: 
     
       1. A bag for use in combination with a bicycle frame, comprising: a front bag wall having perimeter edges and an inside face and an outside face,   a back bag wall having perimeter edges and an inside face and an outside face,   an elongated narrow band positioned between the perimeter edges of the front bag wall and the back bag wall and joining the front bag wall and the back bag wall together along side and bottom portions of the perimeter edges, forming an open-topped bag structure,   said front bag wall and said back bag wall each having a flap formed unitarily with each front bag wall and said back bag wall and extending upwardly from said open-topped bag structure,   said front bag wall attached flap having two mating hook and loop fastener material strips affixed to said front bag wall inside face in a vertically spaced relationship such that said front bag wall flap can be folded along a line parallel to the top of said open-topped bag structure to encircle a bicycle cross-bar, such that the two mating hook and loop fastener strips may join together to attach said front bag wall to a bicycle cross-bar,   said front bag wall flap further having a hook and loop fastener material strip along the outside face of said front bag wall flap,   said back wall flap having a hook and loop fastener material strip along the inside face of said back bag wall flap, whereby, the hook and loop fastener material on the side face of said back bag wall flap may be attached to the hook and loop fastener material on the outside face of said front wall flap to form a cover for the open-topped bag structure while the open-topped bag structure is mounted on a bicycle cross bar.
